I think CK also used science in his great work. Is there something wrong about it?
He also read that paper on Dunning Kruger amongst other interesting literature.

Laugh at what you want, I don't care.
There is no room for smirking in math and science. There are only ignorant people.
Sure thing, mr. Scientist!

LOL. Ok.

I'm not sure you are aware what you are talking abot. Profile take only interaction of the speeaker and the amp in an given amp volume. It will be the same with QC. The only difference is that KPA wil know with use of some calculatiuon between DI and studio profile how the cab interact with the amp. But In my opinion it just can do a better separation then between CAB and AMP than in a ordinary studio profile. But this information is usless when you will change the cab. Or in another words it will act as not intended with different cab.
Not sure if you are aware that both of them send amplitude ( volume ) sweeps as well as frequency sweeps when capturing an amp while an IR is a static frequency map.
Also merged profiles have an accurate separation of the cab part which just works ...
-
You can capture IR with AMP power amp. I dont see a problem here.
IRs map the static frequency response of a cab.
A profile captures the response of a speaker to volume and the interaction with the power amp as well. Not really the same ...
-
lol
Correct.The Kemper and the QC are not the same.
IRs and merged profiles’ cabs are not the same ...
-
You can just swap IRs.
Not the same ...
-
I don't see the difference though. Both devices can do direct profiles. And the cab can be added or switched on each? So why is this being typed as some revolutionary feature?
How do you create cab profiles ( using a specific amp ) with the qc?
With Kpa you can accurately swap cabs between merged profiles. How do you achieve that with the qc?
-
Well, to be more specific....
In blind studies, 5 mSec was the lowest latency any person could hear using headphones. In open air..... No way.
Count me a disbeliever ?
I’m cool with that, you don’t have to believe me.
For example the difference between the Helix and something like the Amplifire is striking even on a clean signal path. There is a noticeable diaconnect in the Helix when put side by side. The same with the Kemper.
I think it was states that the latency of the Amplifire is around 1ms while the Helix is around 3ms.
You have to consider that there’s around 2 ms latency in the audio interface and there might be some latency in the monitors in some cases.
This quickly adds up. Especially without headphones if you account for the distance between the monitors and your ears and the fact that you hear the strings.
Another example is Helix in 4cm which totally destroys the feel of the amp.
Some people are just more sensitive.
I have no problem playing at a distance of 5 meters from the amp but I have a problem with any noticeable latency from the device.
If the qc has the same latency as the Helix then it is a total no-go for me. I hope it doesn't though.
-
I have to, you won't lol... Never saw anyone so against something they know so little about.
You said no one can feel latency at 3 ms.
Quite the generalization ...
And against what? Latency? -

Yes there are other kinds of Captures but, different kinds of Captures existing doesn't change the fact that the Captures themselves only have B M T and Gain to tweak within them, and it doesn't change the fact that you can't swap Cabs in full rig Captures. You're talking as if somehow, other kinds of Captures existing and other features, somehow makes the drawbacks I mentioned non-existent and that's just ridiculous bud lol.
You may think other things about the QC make up for that aspect and you might be right. But I wasn't talking about other aspects in my observation. I tried to be clear about the fact that I was talking specifically about the QC's Capture section and the KPA's Amp block in comparison to each other.
I'm not making blind faith based assumptions. I'm making assumptions based off of what's realistic and what the current market offers and what the market will demand. And simply put, not many people are talking about using Captures of each individual section within an amp and signal chain. Pretty much everyone is talking about full rig and DI Captures so idk how in demand Captures of each section within an amp will be but so far, that seems like something a small percentage of people are interested in doing based of off what people are actively talking about in regards to the unit.
But it could go either way. I guess neither of us know more than the other would so it's a guess on both ends lol.
And I'd like to stress again how i'm not saying that it'll make the unit terrible or make the experience bad. I'm just literally making observations about some limitations i've noticed and have commented about how they'd be drawbacks for my uses and other's with similar workflow's or situations.
Somehow me making observations has triggered a need within you to defend the QC as if it's being attacked lol. As if my observations are an attempt to sabotage your experience with your QC and I assure you that's not the case. If I came off that way, I apologize. I'd like to assure you, I have no malicious intent and I doubt anyone else here does either. I'm merely making observations and comparisons based on the facts we know so far.
As the new "game changer", it's pretty normal for people to compare it to the competition that it's claiming superiority over. Naturally, people will notice things they like and don't like. And while exchanging observations and analysis of individual aspects of the units workflow or features, you keep feeling the need to discredit and disprove the things people are observing. I'm making observations about only specific aspects in comparison to the KPA and I've explained how those things can be drawbacks. And others are expressing their opinions just like you express yours.
Like i've said before, you're right from a certain perspective. And I actually see how you would get to what you're thinking. And it's valid from the other side of the tracks, if you disregard the context of what i'm saying. But that's the issue. You ignore the context to attack the validity of anothers' observation.
There's a difference between respectfully disagreeing and just explaining your opinion-and disagreeing with someones opinion and trying to disprove it or explain why it's wrong lol. And for half the comments i've made, you ignore the context of my observation to explain what other aspects make my opinion less valid. It all isn't necessary because, we're homies man haha. If you haven't noticed, I keep saying you're right too from a certain perspective. You're just ignoring my perspective to make yours right.
I see many advantages and upsides to the QC as well, so it's not all negative. I'm merely being analytical and making observations here. Some of them just happened to be drawbacks. That's not a slam or an attempt to slander anything lol. That's just normal for the new piece of gear while it's being looked at by people. There's definitely no need to be defensive, my friend
Like I said before, we can disagree and still be homies ahaha
I mean no offense and I see where you're coming from. But it'd be cool to feel like that same courtesy was returned. After all, we're buds so what's with all the bickering? hahaha let's just say whatever and agree to disagree A bit long but I agree. Some people identify with the things they buy, any critique will be taken personally and they won’t be judge from a clear and detached perspective.

Here's another flat statement, short of being Superman, neither can anyone else...
Speak for yourself.

Great tone and sound quality can only make a great song better. If the song sucks, there's not much point in polishing a turd.
Not really. The right tone and the right sound can make a song better.
-
Well I think vice versa. This is the right place(other gear sub forum) . But people here feel very unsafe when it comes to new technologies which, in fact, do not in any way change howKPA works or sound.
And I don't understand this attitude a bit.
I don’t see how criticizing a product is a form of defensive behavior.
People have been criticizing the Helix, Headrush, AxeFx for years now and nobody saw that as defensiveness.
People even criticize the KPA on this forum a lot.
Taking personal offense over critique is just a sign of emotional immaturity and nothing else.
-
QC is going to be awesome.
You guys being overly defensive about your KPA’s and nitpicking every little thing to avoid admitting that the KPA could use an update are going to miss out.
Unlinke the guys who are being overly defensive about an unreleased product.
-
Why? You didnt.
Read my post again.
-
Trying is not equal to succeding. Maybe let’s wait for the product to be released and then consider allegedly unjustified critique to be insults?
-
Shills galore ...
-
Do you think this Kemper profile comparison from Andy Sneap sounds like the actual amp?
I don’t know who that is and it’s not a competition.

they don’t really sound alike. There’s bite and top end in the amp that completely misses in the axe on the morgan amp, the marshall doesn’t sound the same at all and I’m listening on my phone.
I only listened to those two. Will give it another try with headphones but imo the diference is a lot bigger than kemper vs amp.
Also I would like to see how Axe compares to a real amp picked up and not through irs.
The jcm800 was pretty spot on though!
